Cartoonist interview:
Q. How do you pronounce Hagar?
Chris Browne: I pronounce it Hay-gar. My brother, Chance, who draws “Hi and Lois” and I came up with it as a nickname for Dad when we were kids. It’s a made-up word, so anyway you pronounce it is correct!

Isn’t it the name of a woman in the Old Testament?
And how is “Horrible” pronounced?
I’ve always pronounced it HAY-gar. The CFO at my company spells her name like the Horrible One, but pronounces it HAYger. Do I remember that when addressing her? Unfortunately, no.
You mean all these years, I’ve been saying ‘HAH-gar’ and I’ve been wrong?
